Interpretation Methods

Substation supports multiple methods of interpreting data for every component (conditions, processors, sinks):

  • object: applies the component to a value retrieved from an object (JSON)
  • object (array): applies the component to an array retrieved from an object (JSON)
  • data: applies the component to data as-is (raw)

Individual components defines their interpretation method(s) and not all will implement every method; review the documentation for each to understand how data is interpreted.
